Verdict
At RM109,800, the GWM Ora Good Cat is RM180 cheaper than the Mitsubishi Xforce and takes the more technology-led route: its single motor produces 143 hp and 210 Nm, while the Xforce’s 1,499 cc petrol engine makes 104 hp and 141 Nm. The Good Cat also brings a 57.7 kWh battery with a listed 400 km range, plus autonomous braking and adaptive cruise control. The Xforce answers with a far more useful 410-litre boot against 250 litres, five doors and rear air-con vents. Choose by charging access and luggage needs, not price.
Pick the GWM Ora Good Cat if you can charge regularly and want 400 km EV range, 210 Nm of motor torque and a fuller active-safety package.
Pick the Mitsubishi Xforce if you need a 410-litre boot, five doors, rear air-con vents and petrol refuelling.
